This pair of silver candlesticks in the four-section high model called "Bambu" is most likely a unique piece. There are also a few pairs made with fewer sections. Sigurd Persson's preserved sketches and work card confirms that two of these candlesticks were made in 1962 through the work of Johan Wist, this pair of candlesticks can be seen in the interior photo from the exhibition "Silverne Stakar" in 1963.

Sigurd Persson (1914-2003) is considered one of the foremost designers of the 20th century in Sweden. Persson, like his father, became a silversmith and took his journeyman's exam in 1938 and then opened his own studio in Stockholm. For a time he worked for Atelier Borgila as a jewelery designer and devoted himself to teaching. In 1950 he held his debut exhibition which was dominated by everyday items such as cutlery and coffee pots but also ecclesiastical and profane corpus silver.
His minimalist but refined forms fit well in the post-war new form style and he enjoyed success at, for example, the H55 exhibition in Helsingborg.
During the 60s, he had his international breakthrough and broadened his design to also include objects in steel, glass, enamel, cast iron, etc. He is known as an innovative form creator and one of the foremost industrial designers of the 20th century. Persson's successful collaboration with companies such as Silver och Stål or with Kosta shows his versatility.
His works are today represented in museums all over the world such as the Philadelphia Museum of Modern Art, Victoria and Albert Museum, Musée des Arts Décoratife and others.
